Rodrigo Muniz scored just three minutes after Jacob Murphy’s spectacular opener Fulham i Newcastle shared the points in the 1-1 draw at Craven Cottage.

Fulham started brightly, with Oscar Bobb forcing Newcastle goalkeeper Lukas Hornicek into an early save before Gonzalo Garcia headed home from a corner.

Newcastle responded through Harvey Barnes, who was twice denied by Bernd Leno, including a superb header as the winger went through on goal.

Dan Burn thought he had given the visitors the lead in the 33rd minute, but his long-range strike was disallowed after Yoane Wissa was penalized for pulling Timothy Castagne’s shirt.

Josh King then tested Hornicek as the teams went into half-time level.

The second half remained closely contested, with Sander Berge dragging an effort wide before Wissa hit the side netting from a tight angle.

Newcastle finally broke through in the 80th minute when Murphy intercepted Berge’s errant pass, cut inside Calvin Bassey and curled a superb left-footed effort into the top corner.

However, Fulham responded almost immediately.

César Palacios sent in a cross from the left in the 83rd minute, and substitute Muniz reacted faster to turn the ball over.

Both goalkeepers produced excellent late saves, with Leno denying Lewis Hall before Hornicek brilliantly turned away Ryan Sessegnon’s powerful shot in stoppage time.
